Constructed Formats

Not sure what it means for an event to be "Standard" or "Vintage"? Stop by the Sanctioned Formats page for a quick breakdown of the major Constructed formats of Magic.

Qualifier tournaments are where the game really gets serious. The excitement level is high and the stakes are even higher. Players the world over converge with a common goal in mind -- an invitation to the Pro Tour, which comes with an airplane ticket to the next Pro Tour stop.

Grand Prix are easily the biggest open events for Magic players. They're high-energy and held around the world. Plus, no invitation is necessary -- anyone can attend. No pro points? No problem. Playing a good game is all that matters, and with Pro Tour invitations awarded to the top four finishers and cash prizes all the way down to 64th place, one thing is certain: a Grand Prix is sure-fire great time. Look for one near you.

This is where legends are born. Three annual worldwide stops make up the Tour, with each event showcasing a prize pool of $250,000. Travel the world, face off against the best players the game has to offer, and enjoy the spoils available to those living the life of a professional Magic player.
